Awesome. Unfortunately it seems that Ortofon have decided that certain parts of the Kb innards will no longer be available. If the Kb dies at any point, it's irreplaceable.A small update,

It came from Angus.
Why not do the upgrade?

He told me that a few customers had not liked the upgrade over the standard kB sound,one even had his return back to normal,killian told me that the vienna mods can be too analytical or clinical for some people’s tastes and after hearing what speakers I use his advice was to stick with the stock kB.
So I’ll send it off to him and await his report.

Yes really!
It seems perfectly good advice to me, after all he knows what both sound like.
Given that we have both heard a real vienna I’d say he’s spot on, warm sounding they not lol
